Terrible race on my end. Maybe one day I will have some luck and get a top five.

Honestly tired of walking away Sundays frustrated. Two of my races have been basically ruined by being ran into.

Not fun. Not fun working your tail off to never be on pace. Blah I'm salty. Gonna go kill people on MW3 I think.

My apologies... The back got loose on me under braking and oversteered to the inside running in to you :(

Been much much better on lap 13 rather then 8. LOL


FWIW I keep the R/A Menu available with ease so I can adjust brake balance mid race. As my tires wear. I will lower the rear bias a click to help keep the rear from getting out on braking. Works well for me.

Also use it during tuning to try other bias settings with out leaving track.
 
Good close racing blaze. The 2nd pit stop was hilarious:sly:

Veloci that was weird how you lost the pagani. Looked like you blew a tire.

Congratz PJ.

hehehe in not sure what i was thinking there. I was on the inside and i could sense you getting ready to pit but i thought we had only pitted 7 laps ago(clearly i was mentally challenged). I started slowing and i think i decided not to pit and then decided to pi and all hell broke loose. Somehow i ended up in front of you.

i need a giant chocolate chip cookie. Im still gutted and heartbroken over the last lap front straight pass :ouch::ouch::ouch::ouch:.

like owens said earlier I should have adjusted my brake balance. I wiped out in turn 1 on both of the last 2 laps which is pretty much how you ended up catching me

well my race was ruined on the very first lap. got wiped out and had damaged front right from 1st lap T6 i think. then i just drove it until the wheels fell off tried 1 stop but didn't put enough fuel had to pit with only a couple laps to go from a much better position then from where i finished. good race guys, i was hoping magz and blaze would take each other out there at the end...lol

lol. in hindsight there was about 20 instances where me and Magz should have wrecked and most others would have wrecked but discretion is the better part of valor... Passing on the outside of T1 rarely goes clean for 1 lap but for 10 laps in a row. Pat on the back Magz! that was epic.

Good Job PJ!. Lord knows how you where that quick. Did you watch your replay. You had engine damage the entire seconds stint. and countless others incidents of right and left front damage. How the hell did you drive that thing?????!!! thats some amazing car control! Uncanny in fact!
 
Blaze. Once damaged. It appears to be there the entire replay. He was fixed after the proceeding pit. ;)
 
Hmm, that's odd. I never had any damage all race, which is a first for me this season. I didn't touch anything all race, must've been a glitch of some sort with the replay. I could never drive that fast with damage, hell, I couldn't drive the car at all if I had that much damage! :lol:

After a fairly good qualifying, starting 5th, when I could've shaved a tenth or 2 at least, off of that 1:36.0 that put me 5th, I was feeling confident, but never really thinking of a win at all.

Turn 1 was thankfully clean, and I managed to keep tissimo behind me. Blaze was first of the frontrunners to crack, which put me 4th, and then later on, Veloci and toyotasupra also lost it into turn 1, which put me 2nd, about 4 seconds shy of Magz. It was only now that I was thinking of a victory, but my aim was to maintain the gap to him, and keep the charging Blaze behind me. On the lap all 3 of us were set to pit, I went off at the bus stop, and lost 3rd to Blaze. Fueled it as much as I needed to at the first stop, which meant I had a slow getaway. That stint consisted of me driving my way past those who had yet to stop, and catching back up to Blaze and Magz, who were now locked in a titanic battle for the lead.

Then, along came my 2nd and final stop, 1 lap after the leading pair pitted. To my surprise, I came out right in their wake, and right behind tissimo. Few laps later and I was past tissimo, and quickly caught up to Blaze and Magz. Then, I made a daring double overtake around the outside, jsut before braking into turn 1, and, thanks to traffic, managed to escape the draft, and drive my way to a first victory! Slight fuel scare at the end, but otherwise, brilliant race!

by an Omega Seat! i think that was there intention in sponsoring the series. Who knows they might offer another seat for Season 6! tbuts thats far off i nthe future. This season is far from over!

i need the G27 asap. i can see the track time literally being lost with this DFGT. i emailed logitech asking if they could reinstate the precious 50% discount that i never used. not sure how they will respond. i noted it would be for christmas lol.

hehe. If you think you had a fuel scare. I came across the finish line on empty!!
and i wouldnt say i "cracked" . I crashed myself in order to avoid slamming into the back of Magzire on lap 4 or 5 i believe.......If theres one thing i hate more than someone else rear ending me its me rear ending someone else and looking like a total Idiot! So yes i'd rather wreck myself than drive my car into the back of someone else in order to save myself.

also. the 45 laps of terror and torture is next week. Anyone planning vacations? lol

also this was mentioned earlier I was supposed to have 41 points after the round at Suzuka not 40
Spa-4th 13 points
Indy-2nd 15 points
Suzuka- 5th 12 points. +1 for fast lap
=41

Div 2 was a wreck. GTP erik won with the Vette. I qualified 2nd with a 1:36.3 with the Ford. He was a 1:36 flat. No one touched him all race. To me it seemed like he checked up early in Turn 1 on the first lap, I touched his rear, but I got damage and fell back to 6th (last). I tried to keep pace but I got loose in the bus stop and someone else collected me. Race was basically over from there. even though I made it to the pits and reached 2nd with 15 laps left, the phone rang and I had to go with less than 10 laps left. I probably could have closed the gap if I stopped only once more, but the tires wouldn't hold on that long. I ended up having to leave anyway. Oh well.
 
you know what would be funny. If on lap 1 at Cot'e someone wiped out in the haripin and it was total gridlock with the entire GTP FIA field just parked there lol.
 
It may not be the most exciting look, but here are the unofficial Standings as of the completion of Rd 4 (Daytona Road Course)

Jav Let me know if there is anything that should be changed.

How about we change that from Spa 2hr to Spa 12hr. Separate the boys from the men hahaha. Pretty sure all of our wheels would break.... Makes me wonder about that Nurburgring 24 hour event that they have planned on here. Dont think any wheel can take 24 hours of thrashing on the Nurburgring of all places . the nurburgring test the FFB of all wheels in every way.

And will call it Petite LeMans. How about let's not and say we did; I don't really want to get another wheel so soon.

So I took a closer look at my replay and it seems that i shifted down into 5th too quickly because of draft and that over-revved the car and locked up my rear wheels. The rest was history.

Have you got a replay there mate? you could send me?

I don't think replays from the US work on a UK console.

Alot of you sound like you had a race beffitting of me!

Well done PJ and everyone who raced.
 
I'm dreaming about Monaco :/. if we thought daytona was bad lol. Let the crashfest beginn. Ive decided that im going to use the walls to help me turn......if you strike them at the right angle you dont get damage.
You guys should try it. That angle is 90 degrees ;)
 
I love Monaco so bloody much, my favorite track, and one of my best tracks. That black Ford will be doing 25's, so i'm hoping that I can slot myself in behind them. I don't have as much of a problem with crashing and bumping the walls as you guys claim to, which is good for me. I've always been good at keeping a consistent pace here.

I need some more wheel time. Hopefully I can have a triumphant return here. :sly:

:scared:Wow santa hats!

I ain't worried about them Ford boys at Monaco. Nor the Zonda.

The GTR TC will be of concern. AWD

My ideals:

Monaco. Drive hard grab a good start or Sandbag qualifying and stay out of the mess. Hopefully cruise by people as they pit for damage.

Hmmm what to do.
 
Cool race. My duel with posi is really nice in first 18 laps. then made a option to do just one stop, positive race for me i think, better then i expect 👍

Can't be better than 8th.... loool 3 sec for pole :yuck:

bah i got stuck behind your slow butt on the last couple of laps setting pj free from me:grumpy:

:)
 
I might be back on by Friday...my gtr would be great for Monaco...but giants vs cowgirls is on at 8 so I don't think I'm gonna be racing anyway...

I hope you have been saving up your money lucky for our bet after Dallas gets spanked :)
